Who would've thought the guy from the silly sitcom Taxi would be so convincing as a psychiatrist? Judd Hirsh is so underrated and talented. I love him.

He can play a funny cab driver, a compassionate psychiatrist, and a sociopath in network movies. Very versatile, but Tim's performance gave him the win. I admired both performances, though.

Taxi had the same creative people involved that were involved in The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Both are classics to me. And Judd Hirsch’s Alex Reiger was the nuanced anchor to a wonderful ensemble of a show - compassionate, bright, funny. I loved him in that. And coming across this again is a real treat for me because he is excellent in this as well (starting from a great character to work with).

As soon as he mentions his mom he gets so defensive, 2:56. It was at that point, Berger realized the mother was the problem.
@TWS-pd5dc5 күн бұрын
Not sure about that, it was clear Conrad was uncomfortable with the entire first interview. Later when his father goes to see Berger I thought a very compelling part of that scene: Berger asks the dad about Conrad and the dad admits he feels he's on a fence and the mom and Conrad are on opposite sides of that fence. Then he says "I can see her not being able to forgive him (Conrad)". Watch Berger's reaction. He seems very taken aback by that revelation. This movie is perfect.

Hirsch gets to the heart of what's bothering Hutton very quickly. He initially peppers him with basic questions, e.g. feeling OK? Depressed, on stage? Family and friends worrying about you?, no issues? Hutton keeps giving stock answers, yes, no issues, all ok, etc. until finally Hirsch asks bluntly "Then why are you here?". He's forcing Hutton to address his issues. So well acted. BTW the part of the shrink was originally offered to Gene Hackman. Can't imagine even as great an actor as Gene could have been better than Judd Hirsch.

There's a subtle message sent by the state of Berger's office: "I'm not in this for the money." The movie pays a lot of attention to little details like that. I think they may have overdone it just a little, though. It's hard to imagine any working psychiatrist having an office that looks like the school counselor's office in a 1920's-built high school.

I mean in general most therapists and psychologists don't make a ton of money, I mean, if you establish a good practice and make a name for yourself you totally can, but a lot of psychologists are looking for work in a overcrowded market. Funnily enough, I actually used to see a therapist in downtown highland Park (where this movie was set and shot) and it looked exactly like this lol. Might even be the same building which would be hilariously ironic.
